I really wanted a modded Xbox 360 when I was younger because I thought being able to play ‘backed up’ games and having a custom dashboard was really neat.

I ended up buying one last year to fulfill that childhood wish.

    It’s not even necessarily the income for some things. Tons of things it just never occurred to me a person could get.

    A great example is my Beast Wars Tigatron toy that I broke almost immediately after getting. One of the knees snapped. Mum glued it back together a few times, but he couldn’t really transform like that and it always broke again. Then last year I was just like “Fuck it. Somebody’s gotta be selling their own broken Tigatron on eBay with a good leg.” At long last I finally have a proper OG Tigatron.
